Wizz Air

Wizz Air is reducing planned capacity for the second half of the financial year by five percent because jet fuel prices have risen sharply following the Iran war. Despite the cut, after a strong summer the company raised its short-term profit forecast and now expects revenue for July to September to be in line with last year, sending the stock up more than three percent. Long term, Wizz Air confirmed targets through 2030: €10 billion in revenue, a 10% operating margin, a fleet of 335 aircraft and 127 million passengers. » Mere på wiwo.de

Wizz Air CEO Jozsef Varadi sees only limited advantages for Wizz Air from the looming insolvency of airBaltic and expects further European airline bankruptcies due to high fuel prices. Airlines without fuel-price hedges face significant liquidity problems from rising oil prices. Wizz Air has hedged 80% of its fuel needs for the next 12 months at roughly half the market price and is expanding capacity into Italy, Romania and Albania. » Mere på de.investing.com
